Not sure yet, but probably a family name ... Elizabeth is a frontrunner.

When I hear Kendra, I think of that playboy bunny that used to date Hugh Heffner.

 Kendra Elizabeth sounds nice!

It's definitely not my taste--I've heard it on both classy and classless individuals, but I'm sorry to say the latter is the perception that persists for me. To make matter worse, I can't stand K names (with the notable exception of Katherine and Kate). All that said, it's not the worst name I've ever heard; it's not even the worst of the correctly spelled names I've seen/heard. If you really love it, consider it. Otherwise, move on.

That has to be the most tactful way of phrasing that!  That said, although I really like the name itself, my fear was that the classless variety would be what people would think of first.  Looks like it is confirmed

Ditto- even so I do like the name, especially with Elizabeth as the middle name.

I actually know someone with that exact name. & at first when I met her about 10years ago I thought it was such a strange name. but now I really like it. I think it is a great choice.
